Chapter 119 – The Clan Master of the Ghost King Clan, intends to ascend the Demon Locking Tower

Elder Wang hadn't let go of his hatred; he simply had no target, no clue!

If his enemy stood before him, he would not hesitate to sacrifice his own life to ensure mutual destruction.

Hatred is more deeply etched in one's bones than love, and far harder to relinquish.

"To let go" – just two simple words, a mere eleven strokes of the brush.

Unless one cultivates the Supreme Heartless Sword, who could truly embody these two words?

After absorbing the memories of the Compassionate Heart sword, Meng Fan opened his eyes, his face filled with a sigh.

Elder Wang's fate was indeed beyond his expectations.

The massacre of a village was something both Meng Fan and Li Xuerou had experienced.

Although Meng Fan didn't feel it as vividly as his host body's original consciousness, after time-traveling, he still retained those memories.

Thinking back on them, he could deeply empathize!

Once he grew stronger, he would inevitably flatten the Skyhawk Demon Sect to avenge himself.

He believed Li Xuerou would do the same, never forgetting that hatred.

In fact, for Li Xuerou, that hatred was far more profound than what Meng Fan felt.

Even if Meng Fan forgot, she never would!

However, the killer of Compassionate Heart and the villagers wasn't the Skyhawk Demon Sect.

The murderer, whom Elder Wang had searched for years without a trace, was easily identified by Meng Fan through the Sword Wraith Memory of the Compassionate Heart sword.

Of course, "easily" wasn't quite the right word.

In the whole world, probably only Meng Fan possessed this ability.

When Compassionate Heart died, she was clutching the Compassionate Heart sword tightly.

Unfortunately, in her hands, the sword had no power.

She couldn't even block a single strike from the killer and was cut open.

Through the memory of the Compassionate Heart sword, Meng Fan learned that the murderer was from the Blood Blade Sect.

And Meng Fan even "heard" one of their names – Yuan Hao!

The Blood Blade Sect, as the name suggests, was a demonic sect.

Just like the Skyhawk Demon Sect, they were a sect filled with evil deeds.

Sadly, these sects were deeply entrenched and difficult to eradicate.

Since ancient times, there has always been a divide between good and evil!

There were times when good did not suppress evil, and times when evil rose a meters higher than the good.

And no matter the era, even with the rise and fall of each side, it was difficult to completely annihilate one.

After absorbing the Essence of the Sword from several sword weapons, Meng Fan returned to his room to continue his cultivation.

The next day, Meng Fan visited the Scripture Pavilion.

Seeing Meng Fan after many days, Senior Disciple Jin showed a hint of surprise.

"Didn't you say you had finished reading all the sword scriptures in the Scripture Pavilion? Why are you back?"

Meng Fan smiled and said, "I'm here to see Elder Lin."

Senior Disciple Jin nodded and said no more.

It wasn't about him, so there was nothing to discuss.

Meng Fan glanced at Senior Disciple Jin, thinking since he was here, he might as well chat more with his socially awkward Senior Brother.

After all, besides himself, there probably weren't many who would want to talk to him.

"Senior Brother Jin, any exclusive news lately?" Meng Fan asked casually.

He was simply trying to find a topic to chat about with Senior Disciple Jin.

But when Senior Disciple Jin spoke, it was never trivial.

"The Clan Master of the Ghost King Sect has issued a challenge to our Shu Mountain. In a month, he will ascend Shu Mountain and enter the Demon Locking Tower!"

Meng Fan's face showed surprise.

He was just making casual conversation, and Senior Disciple Jin dropped a bombshell.

The Ghost King Sect, the Clan Master?

This was a figure of demonic prominence, a significant figure in the whole world.

If such a powerhouse was to ascend Shu Mountain...

That was no small matter!

"The Demon Locking Tower? What does he want in the Demon Locking Tower?" Meng Fan asked instinctively.

Such big gossip was too tempting to ignore.

Senior Disciple Jin, expressionless, said, "The Demon Locking Tower not only seals the demon tribe but also some demonic creatures and evil entities. The Clan Master of the Ghost King Sect is after one of those demonic items."

"What demonic item?" Meng Fan asked.

"The Blood Soul Sword!" Senior Disciple Jin said calmly.

"Oh," Meng Fan nodded.

A moment later, Senior Disciple Jin looked at Meng Fan in surprise.

He thought Meng Fan would ask what the Blood Soul Sword was, but Meng Fan's lack of inquiry made him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Meng Fan wasn't interested in this Blood Soul Sword because he knew, even without thinking too hard, that it was an incredibly terrifying Demon Sword.

If he coveted that sword, it would be like a mouse licking a cat's behind – courting death!
